The file, which contains emails, client lists, revenue reports, client history and marketing materials -- just to name some of the most interesting aspects -- appears to show Hacking Team has a healthy client list worldwide.

- Belgium, the United Kingdom, Estonia, Luxembourg, Ireland, Germany, Lithuania, Spain, Austria, France, Malta, Portugal and the Czech Republic belong to the medium-performance group. They are doing well in certain areas but still need to progress in others.

L'Éducation nationale formera les futurs spécialistes dans les technologies de l'information et de la Communication. Dans le cadre de l'ICT Spring, le ministre de l'Éducation nationale, de l'enfance et de la jeunesse, Claude Meisch, a exposé les grands axes de la stratégie «Digital4education». Elle s'inscrit dans le cadre de l'initiative Digital Lëtzebuerg qui ambitionne de renforcer et de consolider la position du Grand-Duché dans le domaine des TIC.
La stratégie «Digital4education»vise à préparer les jeunes à vivre dans un environnement professionnel et privé en mutation constante. Elle amènera les élèves à développer des compétences indispensables dans l’utilisation des TIC et à promouvoir des projets pédagogiques utilisant l’école numérique. Cette stratégie digitale s’articule autour de cinq «dimensions» qui se déclinent en projets.
Dans le premier «digital citizen», l’école est censée initier les enfants à des applications clés qu’ils utiliseront dans leur vie d’adulte. Ils seront également sensibilisés aux questions de l’utilisation de leurs données personnelles sur les réseaux sociaux et de prévenir les risques. Le second nommé «digital peer» intègrera une dimension éthique et sociale. Les élèves aborderont la notion de sécurité sur Internet, le harcèlement moral sur les réseaux et une notion importante comme le droit à l’image.

Quelles sont les initiatives en terme de digital que vous saluez le plus au Luxembourg ?
Je salue toutes les nouvelles initiatives numériques. Elles sont toutes importantes et chacune d’entre elles témoigne de l’esprit d’initiative de celui ou de celle qui en a eu l’idée et a ensuite consacré du temps et des moyens à sa réalisation.
Une initiative récente qui me tient très à cœur parce qu’elle concerne les jeunes, et ainsi l’avenir du Luxembourg, est l’initiative Bee creative et la mise en place des maker spaces, ces espaces de découverte qui permettent à tous les jeunes intéressés d’utiliser de manière créative les nouveaux médias pour réaliser leurs propres projets numériques. Tous les jeunes, et pourquoi pas aussi les moins jeunes, devraient profiter pleinement de cette offre et s’immerger dans cette ambiance ludique et ingénieuse, découvrir leurs talents cachés, et s’amuser avec les nouveaux outils à leur disposition.
